Eve has a lot of regular guests who have stayed since day 1 who I'm hoping will try our other cottages. I've been following the debate about dog-friendly holidays, as I don't think any of our guests have not brought dogs along, not a single booking. So the debate was 'What really is dog-friendly and what is dog-tolerant', with guests arriving to find signs on the wall saying "No dogs upstairs!" "No dogs on the furniture".
My personal doggy needs have changed recently: I need one level properties with a large garden - which is why Eve is up for sale, our dogs really need a large paddock sized garden.
I wondered what guests look for in a holiday cottage?
Is it a nearby beach, pub or fish and chips shop? Or peace and quiet? Being able to walk to a beach or forest?
